Flo around the world 08

Penang Assam Laksa

It's my sworn duty as a Penang 'kia' (a long time ago, but still born in Penang) to duly protest that! Only in Penang can you get Penang Assam Laksa, nowhere else does it right!

Penang assam laksa is definitely worth flying for, so I will try to bribe The Flo to come with me to Penang next time, muahaha

Some Laksa I cannot remember :/

Ummm, for those not in the know, Flo's gesture is a little naughty

Showing my ignorance here... I'll ask The Flo when I see him soon.

Maybe Flo himself is unaware of the true meaning

Similar to the Greek moutza which just comes so naturally to us here in the UK but which no doubt had drivers revving up their engines at road crossings in Greece before I found out.

Dude, what's with the stackin' (see definition #1) in your photos? Is this some Austrian gang thing?

Loving the TR Flo! And the laksa pics are driving me insane. Good ole' 328 Katong Laksa, extra dollop of chilli, and lime juice. Nostalgia.....

Your comments on SQ's new J class I completely agree with. When I first saw them I was in awe, pics simply can't convey how tempting these new seats are.

Happy traveling!

Thanks Flo - loved the Melbourne by night shots.

outfit by upcoming Melbourne-based fashion crack, singaporu_kooku.

Hmm.. Fashion crack is an overstatement.. LOL...

Some Laksa I cannot remember :/

It was Asam Laksa
Love the pics, flo.. Now, I'm tempted to get dslr...

Flo, beautiful night shots. I can never do them.

Have you brought a tripod along? We'd try some night photography in NYC.

Actually, it was blast-off's tripod but I might buy one

You're much too humble. The pics look great!

Indeed, certainly heaps better than the ones I've taken up at Eureka.

Melbourne at night.
Melbourne is a great city and there are loads of things to discover. One thing that's a true blast is the view of Melbourne at night. So if you've got a dSLR and preferably a tripod, take those things along! Please excuse my non-existent photography skills, I am still learning

So, as the in-hotel internet rate seems to be really bad - they charge per megabyte used - I will update this thread (incl. photos) when I come to LA if the internet is better there.

you might use the hotspots of the fon community (http://www.fon.com).
I did it when I was in AKL and it is only 1 euro per day

All hotels in NZ have extortionate internet charges. However there are plenty of cheap internet cafes nearby ($2 per hour). Closest to Mercure are on Customs Street and one block back on Fort Street.

Flight No: SQ 221


The mighty beast, the A380 that is, just looks fearsome from the outside. In reality, it's a humble beast: calm, quiet and absolutely adorable. The pilot, Captain Ting (or so), slenderly cruised the beast back and forth along the whole airport - I guess the tower changed his mind about which runway we were going to depart and in the end it was the one next to the Budget Terminal we used.

I believe this is the same Captain Ting who did the very first inaugural flight to SYD. I had him piloting my flight once before on SKB.
